This is an excellent fowl site. Everything and anything you need to know about any type of domesticated fowl is on here. The Poultry Help Line Message Board is VERY helpful along with the Poultry FAQ. I also enjoy the many photos on the site, the chicken trivia and fun pages, and pretty much everything this site has to offer. :) Pete and Justine, you two have really put up a wonderful, family friendly site that everyone can enjoy. Thanks, Lindsay and the Campton Family

I just logged back onto your website and was very sad to hear about your stroke. I can't tell you how much your step by step barn and cage construction helped this city girl understand how to build right and furthered my enjoyment of raising chickens. And to top it off, I am a native Texan in my 21st year in the frozen north. Your Texas stuff makes me homesick. When we retire, we will return to Brenham, and I hope to get to work building a chicken coop the first thing! Hope your recovery is as close to 100% as possible. Judy

Today, I have found your site and bookmarked the glossary section (since I am a potential Chicken/Hen Owner). I may purchase a Chick this month, to raise as a pet. We have an indoor female Rabbit, Rat Girl, and (island-blue coloured) male Parakeet. With three children (and home-schooling), we need to have a variety in our Life! So very sorry to hear of your medical condition. My father just had a stroke this weekend. The Medical facilities (in this area) are not equipted to handle such condition. His health has worsened yet, finally they will transfer him to an Urban, Metro Hospital equipted with Physicans and the Technology to assist. The outlook is poor. I had taken a Stroke/Heart Disease course for Health Care Professionals this year. The prognosis is so much greater when treated just after the attack. If he, or others, would acquaint themselves with the info prior to having the condition and prior to reaching the later years of life- death could be avoided in many, many cases. Treatment for Stroke needs to be implemented with-in THREE HOURS of attack. Many Men are affraid to admit the pain, and the sudden lack-of-control they face in crisis. I wish You well! Thank You for your informative site.

First saw your website back in 2000 while stationed in Germany. Absolutely enjoyed your generous tips, tricks, and construction photos. Just revisited and was shocked to hear you had suffered a stroke. Hang in there!!!! The moment you give up is the moment all of the hard work the two of you have put forth ends. It may take some time, but I'm convinced you'll be back out there enjoying the fowl as much as you'd like. Godspeed and bestwishes for your RECOVERY and future. Thanks for a great site. Al

I obtained your web site through google.com. I was searching for plans to build a chicken coop for a hen and a rooster that took up with us about three weeks ago in our back yard. I guess they were looking for a new home and were happy with our fenced in back yard. They have become pets since then and seem to be content here. The plans you posted on your site gave my wife and I an idea as to how we want to construct a pen for our strays that took up with us thanks for the info ! david and marshe peters.
